Mr. Lewis's Welcome Video 

Howdy!

My name is Jacob Lewis and art won't leave me alone. It pervades every corner of my life. As an art teacher, I focus on developing students' ability to communicate through the visual language. I have a strong distaste for hand turkeys and making "stuff" for the sake of just making "stuff". I believe the world is overstuffed and needs better ideas.

I love learning alongside my students and especially get excited when something insightful or wise springs forth from the magical beard of truthiness. I work very hard to create a positive and empowering classroom and get really bummed out when students aren't happy.

When I'm not teaching I am busy with RASA Easels, a small art supplies start-up I co-founded with my best friend. I love quality time with my family in the midst of all the craziness, and occasionally still find time to make music and personal artworks. 

 I am reminded of why I love teaching when I see a student grow in a way that makes them excited about who they are.
